108. The first one (Part 1)
A hundred wastes to be revived, all things to be decided.
Including Fan Zeng himself, all the ministers thought that the prime minister, who was already very old, would die after a year or two at most.
But he didn't want ten years to pass, and Prime Minister Fan, who was nearly eighty years old, was still in good spirits, and he still held the position of Prime Minister.
With this His Majesty's "Father Ya" there, no one in his vassals could surpass him, except for Lu Fengxian, who was crowned the Empress by virtue of his great generals.
Fan Zeng did not know where he was being scolded by his colleagues for being old and immortal.
He also knows that he is old, and he has thought about it over and over again, and only when the time is right, he will retire completely and take care of his old age. After living for such a long time, it is enough to usher in this peaceful and prosperous world with his own hands. One day, there will be nine springs with a smile.
But the 'time' he was eagerly waiting for was always in the future.
During this day, there was a lot of quarrel over the construction of the canal connecting the north and the south. Xiang Yu hesitated for a while, and Fan Zeng was also undecided. .
Because of Lu Bu's special status - although she is the queen, she is also a general - there was no longer a general standing at the front of the queue in the early days, but an imperial chair was added beside His Majesty.
It's just that for seven or eight days out of ten, that chair is empty.
There is no shortage of speculation among the courtiers about the Queen's seldom going to the early court to discuss politics.
Among them, the most recognized conjecture is that although this Lu Qishi is in a high position and the emperor is also very affectionate, he always knows how to advance and retreat and avoid suspicion.
And because the Xiang family is full of talented people, the successor's performance is remarkable, and the situation has stabilized...
The ministers turned a blind eye to the situation that there was always no one in the harem and only the queen.
After all, the fate of the last official who pointed fingers and criticized it was still vivid in my eyes.
At that time, when the Queen heard the words, she just snorted in disdain, but His Majesty was furious.
Fortunately, the queen dissuaded him in time, and he did not hurt the man's life, but he was still sent to the extreme south to become an official by the furious His Majesty, which was no different from being cut off from official career.
The man was just trying to impress the public. He didn't want to go to the south to die, so he resigned from office in a daze, and there has been no news since then.
With the lessons learned from the past, how can future generations dare to do it again?
His Majesty is willing to share the country with him, and he can't let others talk about it.
It should be noted that this Empress Lv was a general Lv who personally led the army to charge into the battle, killed blood in a river, made countless contributions, and was famous for his virtuous name.
——But this general, who is invincible in attack and invincible, is the same dragon's inverse scale of His Majesty the Emperor, who is equally powerful and fierce.
Anyone who dares to touch the reverse scale will surely die.
How did Lu Bu know that he was just too lazy to get up early to listen to the chatter of a group of civil servants, so he ended up with such an outrageous guess.
And Fan Zeng, who hurriedly went to find the queen to inquire about politics, was unfortunately also in vain: According to the guards, the queen left Fengxian Hall long ago and went to the barracks.
Lü Bu still emptied the post of general, and occasionally, on a whim, he went to the barracks to train some soldiers, and moved his muscles and bones.
This whereabouts, Fan Zeng secretly said that it was not a coincidence, but he was not surprised, so he went to the barracks.
However, when he arrived at the barracks, he still hadn't found anyone, so he went to his righteous brother Han Xin's house.
Although the Queen and General Han are not siblings, they are more like siblings.
Although Fan Zeng made two trips in vain, he was not surprised, so he went to the Han House non-stop.
General Han was on vacation today, so he didn't have to go to the military camp to train soldiers, so he was busy composing military books as a pastime.
Xiang Yu's preference for 'Uncle Guo', as soon as he heard about it from Lu Bu, immediately sent someone to give him strong support.
There is a clerk who assisted in the selection and collection, and Han Xin's progress in the compilation was even faster, and he felt like a duck to water.
He was reluctant to leave Beijing to report his duties like Zhong Lizhen, Long Qi and other generals of Chu. It was the battle ten years ago that completely displayed the power of the Great Chu, causing the once most tyrannical Xiongnu to be wiped out. surrender.
Not only did they send people a lot of tribute every year, but they also sent protons to Beijing, fearing the iron hoof of the great Chuxiong division.
And Xiang Yu also knew that the war was turbulent and the people's livelihood was suffering, and he had no intention of going into the military.
Since no more Yi people dared to violate the border, the general was content to be idle.
The world is at peace, and I am afraid that there will be no battles in twenty or thirty years.
It's just that this kind of 'idle' is not like the 'idle' that called Han Xin's disheartened fifteen years ago, but made him feel satisfied.
There was a more important reason for Han Xin to stay - he was really worried that he would suddenly become the queen's virtuous brother, lest he might be wronged at the hands of His Majesty because of his virtuous brother's upright temperament.
However, after ten years, Han Xin, who was the closest to the Empress, didn't know that, although there seemed to be a lot of punches and kicks between the Empress and the Empress, most of them were the virtuous brothers who took the initiative to cause 'disturbances'.
His Majesty was very willing, and the wise brother did not feel wronged at all. At first, he was apprehensive, but then he was incredulous. Gradually, he calmed down.
Fan Zeng went to Han Xin's house and talked for a while with this "uncle of the country", who was well known to everyone, although he didn't say anything, and he calmed down before he knew it.
He looked at General Han, who was very talkative and intelligent, and couldn't help but sigh that he was wise after he never objected to His Majesty's acceptance.
Although he was old, he was not confused. He still vaguely remembered that Han Xin had left the camp because he had joined the Chu army for several years and was never reused.
It was also thanks to Feng Xian who made a decisive decision and rode on His Majesty's Duxue Wuxian on the spot to chase, and brought this incredible general back.
Fortunately, Feng Xian is the second priority - otherwise, how can we really leave such a bold, careful, civil and military genius, Feng Xian, who does not admire fame, and how can his righteous brother Han Xin lose his sincerity and accept loyalty without reservation?
Fan Zengsi couldn't help feeling overwhelmed when he thought of this.
In Han Xin's view, although the construction of the canal has the merits of thousands of generations, it is extremely labor-intensive and wasteful. Since the great Chu is now prosperous, but has not yet ushered in its peak, it should not be rushed.
Instead of rushing to build a canal, it is better to send people to the Western Regions.
Since that battle defeated the Xiongnu, it has also completely displayed the prestige of the Great Chu. Now that the people of the Great Chu are walking in the Western Regions and the Northern Border, they are not as dangerous as they were ten years ago.
Since there are many ordinary merchants who dare to go out and do business, why not send officials to go through and officially open up a business route?
After listening to Han Xin's proposal, Fan Zeng was thoughtful and couldn't sit still in the Han residence, so he was about to leave immediately.
After Han Xin got up to see him off and was rejected, he watched Fan Zeng's back and breathed a sigh of relief.
He sat back down at the low table and tapped five times without hesitation.
Just after the fifth knock, a slender and tall figure came out from behind the screen, and said with relief: "This nagging old man is gone!"
Lu Bu, who could hear clearly outside the screen, had lingering fears on his face.
——Thanks to my cleverness, after being notified by the guards, I hid in the house of the cheap brother in time, and called the cheap brother to deal with the eighty-year-old nagging ghost!
How did he know that he only let go a few times, this old man Fan was incredible, and he was always harassing him with some court affairs and national affairs!
If it's going to be a war, that's all, why the fuck do you have to ask him to start this unlucky brain when he builds a dam canal or something? Fox Chen's gang don't eat dry rice!
There is also the man named Xiao He, don't think he doesn't know, but it is clearly written in the history books, this man forgets to sleep and eat, and is very diligent when he is under Liu Mouse's hands.
How come under the hands of idiots, you will be lazy if you can, and you have to kick it before you know how to move!
Han Xin laughed and said, "Brother Xian can't escape this moment, but he will be sought after by Prime Minister Fan."
Can run the queen, but can not run the temple.
"That stinky old man has a very good memory!"
How could Lu Bu not know this?
He complained, and sat down beside Han Xin. He didn't sit up straight for a long time, and then he lay down on the ground, looking disgusted.
If it weren't for this old man's loyalty and zeal, he couldn't help but think of the nagging ghost surnamed Chen. !
Thinking of this, Lu Bu felt that his head was full of bags.
Straight mother thief, he only knows the rules that the harem is not allowed to do politics, how can this queen do it, but his mother has to manage everything, and it is not as free as when you are a general?
It stands to reason that the Hanzi's harem is empty, and he is a bare commander, and he should enjoy the good days of wandering and doing nothing all day long.
Even if he was unwilling to get up at four shifts to go to that morning court, and he was stubborn, the fool never dared to restrain him.
As a result, in the eyes of the officials headed by Old Man Fan, this is not the case at all - no matter how big or small, they all came to him in the end!
The first few times, Lu Bu was patient and perfunctory, using his brain to deal with one or two.
After more than a few times... he became more vigilant than ever, but whenever he heard the wind, he immediately escaped.
Listening to the many complaints from the virtuous brother, Han Xin was not surprised, and it was not the first time he helped send off officials such as Fan Zeng.
He poured a cup of tea for himself and the virtuous brother, and calmly picked up the book again, just before immersing himself in the sea of books, he casually asked, "Can the virtuous brother have dinner with the foolish brother?" "
Lu Bu opened his mouth and was about to respond, when a low voice came from outside the door and said, "No need."
The two looked at the sound subconsciously.
The person who came to the entrance was naturally Xiang Yu, the Emperor of Chu, who was dressed in civilian clothes and came to Han Xin's mansion to look for the queen as usual.
Facing the eagle-eyed and mighty emperor, Han Xin's expression was calm as usual, and he wanted to stand up and salute.
Sure enough, just as he got up, he was stopped by Xiang Yu's gaze.
"Don't be too polite," Xiang Yu glanced at Han Xin, then turned his attention to the beloved queen: "Fengxian."
Lu Bu, who was half-lying in a slack position, sat up at some point, and then walked slowly to Hanzi's side, and said, "Are you done with your work?"
"En." Xiang Yu's eyes lightly responded softly, and he held his hand with a natural expression: "Go back."
For the first provocation of Emperor Chu, the dignified empress had to be outdone.
Looking at the close back of the Empress holding hands and walking side by side, Han Xin silently snorted, with a gentle smile on the corner of his mouth, and continued to bow his head to cultivate his military membership.
In the past ten years, he has completed eight articles. The ninth chapter used in this volume is also the one he attaches the most importance to, called "Chu Emperor Chapter".
